Comments
Comments: It snowed all day. No views but a beautiful day. The trails were in good shape except for some drifts between North and South. The snow is soft so snowshoes are the easiest option. We wore snowshoes all day. Saw about 9 people on the trail, mostly in snowshoes. Total mileage 14.1 including the road walk of 1.5 miles each way.
